Does this include dress, photography, video, entertainment, wedding bands etc? My entire wedding budget was $35K for 60 guests. Most of the big items are fixed regardless of headcount, so per guest cost can be misleading when everything is added up.

@hilsy85: no. Nothing bride related. So leave out the dress, shoes, rings, photography, band, officiant, ect. I mean yeah those services are for the guests, but not required like seats, food, drinks, ect.

We spent a total of ~$17,000 for our wedding of 148 guests – so just about $115 per person when all is said and done… but that includes everything, even our attire, dj, etc. Not too bad, but still crazy when I look at the grand total.
